Thank you for your time and opinion.

Is that moisture damage on the first page, to the right of the fold out?  Almost doesn't look like production waviness...

No, there are two slight dents in the bottom left-hand corner that carry through the first half of the book. I think pressing could get rid of those, as they don't break color.

Now, here's my decision. Send it to @joeypost to have it pressed, send it to CGC to be graded, and, if I'm lucky, I'll get it back by December. Otherwise, sell it raw here or on Ebay. What to do, what to do ....

if you want it graded to put it up for sale i would call it NM+ and not give it a numerical grade

On Ebay, I assume? Should I mention the dents? Unlike typical Ebay sellers, I prefer to be honest.

Maybe give it a shot here in a sales thread...then you don't have to deal with eBay carp.  At least on the boards, most of us know what we're looking at and won't be dill holes about it.

Describe it as 9.4 with chance at 9.6

This. Be honest with flaws. Honestly always pays off for those long term in life. At least that is what I choose to believe.

I think this works best. You'll potentially achieve a higher result and the buyer will feel like they have a chance to bump up a grade and will likely bid higher...win-win
